FAQ

What is PLUSfoam?

PLUSfoam is a 100% recyclable alternative to traditional rubber, foam and plastic. We custom compound the material based every project's need and work with your manufacturing team to ensure production runs smoothly.

Not only have we invented a smarter material, we've pioneered a closed-loop system that recycles manufacturing scrap and incentivizes consumers to return products after they are done using them.

How is PLUSfoam sold?

PLUSfoam is sold by the pellet, sheet, pre-form, component or in some cases, the finished good. These details ultimately depend on the project specifics: where the supply chain is based, how many units are being produced, etc.

How much does PLUSfoam cost?

All PLUSfoam components are all made custom and costs vary depending on specifications, performance characteristics, color, etc. That said, PLUSfoam prices are on par with the materials they are designed to replace.

Can we recycle any product that has a PLUS component?

Yes – we will take back any product that has a PLUS component. If possible, PLUS will grind the entire product, including any textile – with heat and pressure alone, no glues or adhesives, your old product will become something new! If textiles or other materials need to be removed from your recycled product, we will do what we can to make use of the residual material or work to find another home for it.

Can PLUSfoam act as an agent and molds, fabric, etc.?

PLUSfoam is a material supplier and cannot act as an agent. Depending on the project specifics we may be able to source molds, factories, etc., but there are generally agent fees associated with this sort of this. Generally speaking the best practice is to integrate PLUSfoam in the very back of an existing supply chain by directing your assembly factory to order material from us.

Is PLUSfoam non-toxic?

PLUSfoam is both REACH and Prop-65 compliant for Restricted Substances – generally speaking, the simple chemical composition of PLUSfoam makes it far better than the materials it was intended to replace.
